Summary:
The Manor Independent School District (ISD) in Texas is home to three middle schools that serve students in grades 6-8. Based on the data analysis, Manor New Technology Middle stands out as the top-performing school in the district, with significantly higher test scores, lower dropout rates, and a more diverse student population compared to Decker Middle and Manor Middle.
Manor New Technology Middle boasts a 65.59% proficiency rate in STAAR EOC/Algebra I, far exceeding the district and state averages. It also has a lower dropout rate of 0.2%, compared to 3.5% at Decker Middle and 0.5% at Manor Middle. However, the data reveals significant performance gaps between the three schools, as well as between the Manor ISD and the state of Texas, suggesting that the district could benefit from more equitable funding distribution and targeted strategies to improve educational outcomes for all students.
The correlation between socioeconomic status and academic performance is evident, with the schools serving a higher percentage of students from low-income families (Decker Middle and Manor Middle) generally performing worse than Manor New Technology Middle, which has a lower percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients. This highlights the need for the Manor ISD to address these disparities and ensure that all students have access to the resources and support they need to succeed.
